Dear Antonucci family,
We just found out about Rose, and are profoundly grieved. She was for many years our hard-working, always-reliable ad much-valued travel agent, and she enriched our lives, and our children's, through the many memorable vacations that she enabled. We were sorry to have lost contact with her after she retired, and are sorrier still to learn that she is gone. We are grateful to have known her, and we extend our heartfelt sympathy to all of you.
